Over at the 27 Club, The White Wires performed a fun power pop set!
While it was a late show (1:30am to be exact), I totally had a great time dancing and singing to their songs.

http://photogmusic.com/thewhitewires-thebirdsofparadise/#respondSat, 21 Oct 2017 17:38:28 +0000http://photogmusic.com/?p=40640For one night only The White Wires played at Happy Goat Coffee Co.
It’s been about three years since the band has performed.
Mostly because Allie is living the USA and was in Ottawa for a visit.
Being very last minute, there was no way I was going to miss out this show.
Starting off the show was Montreal’s The Birds of Paradise.
At first their music started off slow and mellow but later on picked up when they went all noisy electro-rock.
The time came for The White Wires.
For those that were at the show, there was a lot of excitement.
People dancing to their wonderful Power Pop music.
Felt like time didn’t change at all and everyone was happy for that wonderful night!

I was guest hosting for Mixtape Session on June 30th the day before Canada Day!
So it was mostly a CanCon themed show, with that I played five songs from this compilation by QiBM’s DOMINIONATEDdeux.
Have a listen to the show

http://photogmusic.com/the-white-wires-and-pregnancy-scares-house-of-targ-december-29-2014/#respondTue, 30 Dec 2014 07:14:00 +0000http://photogmusic.com/?p=316632014 is coming to a close and I have to say this would top it off.
This was the show to end off all shows in Ottawa for the year.
At least it was a fun, exciting and literally a sweaty show at the House of Targ.The White Wires rarely plays a lot in Ottawa due to Allie being in the USA.
At least it was a treat for Ottawa folks to see them at this sold out show at House of Targ.
No new materials but it was a definitely a fun show.
I spend most of the time trying to mosh in the crowd, hence lacking on really great photos.
So glad to enjoy this show with all the pushing around and singing to their catchy garage power pop rock music.
Let’s hoping for a new record in 2015!
Before the White Wires got on the stage.
There was a unexpected special guest.
The Toronto band First Base and label Hose Head Records came up for this show.
First Band played one song.
It would be funny if they actually played a longer set.Pregnancy Scares began the show.
They performed their loud hardcore punk rock music.
Couldn’t help but mosh half-way during the set.
Wasn’t sure if they actually did a cover.
One of the best Ottawa shows to end off 2014.

For most of you have known.
I am gone on vacation from September 1 – 10.
With that I’ve decided to do 10 days of “That Time I Shot” project.
Here is the first one which was originally posted on May 16, 2010.Kelp Records was celebrating their 16 years in the Ottawa music scene.They just had a big show at Raw Sugar Cafe.
Afterwards, I was told to go check out the White Wires secret show which took place on Victoria Island.
Don’t remember how I got there
But it was a show to remember.
Seeing the White Wires play in a U-Haul with a generator running.
Half-way through the generator blew out but was back on.
Lots of people dancing and moshing to their garage power-pop music.
